Test Stand File menu item entry point execution in VC++ code

[bsnayana]

Hi,

Can you please suggest me, how to execute a file menu item entry point pragmatically in a VC++ code.

My process model seq inserts an item called "Select Model" into TS file menu.

i have to programmatically execute this entrypoint from an Operator interface developed in VC++.

Request your suggestion in this concern.

Couln't you just use the PerformClick Method?  So basically you'll have a reference to your menu somewhere in the code.  Get the node of the item you want and then use the PerformClick method.

From MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.menuitem.performclick%28v=vs.71%29.aspx

I recommend that vs going through the TestStand API.  It will be a lot cleaner.

Is "Select Model" a configuration entry point? If so, maybe the following would work:

Command command = seqFileViewMgr.GetCommand(CommandKind_ConfigurationEntryPoints_Set, 0);

command.Execute(parameter depends on how you want to handle errors);

Hope this helps,
